Lyric discussion by BoomShaka 

You have to wait the last verse of the song to catch the meaning of the song : There's always someone worse off than you. Especially when it comes to material/physical issues in front of mind/spirituals ones. The lyrics are about these three kids but it coulda been about anyone...Simple and good.

I agree with everything you said. Growing up after age 10 I thought my childhood was the worst, but you always meet someone(s) who had it much worse. It doesn't make it any easier, though. I like how the song is written: creative, yet thought provoking.

you got it, like a very few others.

@BoomShaka Agreed. Just like bad things happen to good people
